WION News (I've mentioned them before) has come through again, this time with a report about the growing movement—going by the hashtag #BoycottChina— to divest from China. There is apparently a new phone app called "Remove China Apps," whose sole purpose is to hunt down and uninstall all apps originating in China. I find this hilarious, but it's also a fine step in the right direction. China needs to be disconnected from the global economy, and although there's no chance of that ever happening, the West needs to try, if only to regain its own soul after years of allowing the Chinese demon/vampire to suck the West's life out.
The app isn't visible when I try to shop the Android Play Store, so I guess it's been removed (some YouTube comments suggest the same is true in Europe). I'm in South Korea, so this isn't surprising: Korea has been kowtowing to China for a long time; as I've mentioned before, Korea was once a vassal state of China, so this subservience goes back centuries. China is currently South Korea's largest trading partner, so even as the rest of the world pivots toward #BoycottChina, South Korea will, alas, remain blindly loyal, especially under the current leftist government. If South Korea's attitude changes, I'll be pleasantly surprised.
